When the heel came off my shoeI knew I was condemned to die.I came into this world laughinglike one who had wept enough.Hung in the 18th centuryunder a vague sunfor a pavane crime,this morning I put my feeton the floor and all that.One by one thoughts came into meand I left them there.One by one they criedplease don't murder me,I am your offspring!Which is what I said to the passerbywhen the heel came off my shoeand I knew I was condemned to die.
